Didn’t mean to post that last post on this blog but I’ll keep it up. I’ve been against the occupation of Palestinian since I learned about the topic about 2-3 years ago. I’m against colonization and abuse in general✨. This is not hate against Jewish people, as Jewish people are not the oppressive government or it’s army that is claiming to doing a good. There are much smarter people than me on the topic, but I have tried to learn as much as I can.
I really recommend the Fateful Triangle by Noam Chomsky. Just reading the intros will get the point across, but the state of Israel is a power grab for oil and control of the east - not an act of care for Jewish people
Or listen to Palestinians who have lived through this or are living through this. My first introduction to what was going on, other than growing up in a Christian conservative household that acted like Israel was good and always there. Was a classmate in my history and colonialism class. He talked about how his grandmother still wore the key to her old house that had been bulldozed to make apartments for settlers.
This is not a new issue. It’s an on going attempt at genocide

FP Jones(Riverdale)
Tumblr media
FP Breaking his Sobriety because of You:
Tumblr media
Forsythe Pendleton “FP” Jones The Second had finally been released from Prison and was currently at his retirement party held at the Whyte Wyrm. 
You had been there as well to support your “King” or soon to be former King of the Southside Serpents. Before FP had gone to jail you two had shared a complicated relationship, meaning it was one that consisted of mainly sexual acts and hidden get together’s. Due to your age gap things were rough, you only being 19 years of age. And then with him going to jail for the parts he played in Jason blossoms death it clearly didn't work out. but as the Serpent you were you wouldn't miss the party thrown for him by the Prince of the southside serpents aka his son Jughead. 
You hadn't Spoke to FP yet and had been glad for it as you were avoiding him as much as possible at this event. i mean god knows how awkward it could be to have to explain your date and guy you have been seeing recently. Sweet Pea. yup the young boy well not to much younger than yourself had been having a not so serious type of relationship. but of course being at the sane place as FP and having Sweet Pea along with you, you'd be noticed by FP. 
FP had been chatting with some of his serpent buddies when he looked over to the pool tables seeing you dressed up nicely in a tight green dress that hugged all your curves just right and looked amazing with your Serpents jacket on. his eyes flashes slight excitement while they travelled around your body until he noticed a hand around your waist and his eyes followed to where the guys face had been, the face being so close to yours. the face being Sweet Peas. FPs eyes grew wider and looked of hurt with anger mixed in them. he noticed Sweet Peas smirk and leaning into you pressing his lips onto yours, making FP even more upset.
 FP knew you were young and things between you two just wasn't working mainly due to that fact of your age, he felt guilt many times and like he would break jugheads heart for ever crossing the line with you. You were one of jugheads friends sure you weren't as close as you use to be with jug couple years ago but it still seemed wrong and FP didn't need to be judged more in his life and hated by his son even more as well, things slowly ended with you two and he knew the final ending was when he was sent to prison.  Yet he still had the same feelings for you the same care and lust and jealousy. which right now led to him ordering for a Serpent buddy to get him a shot. something very strong he says to the guy and the serpent nods fastly bringing one to his King. He knew it was stupid and felt bad for breaking his sober pact to him self and son but he needed something in that time to deal with seeing You and Sweet Pea.  
After hearing of jugheads deal with Penny The Snake Charmer and Seeing You moved on from him FP had a change of heart. 
FP had been on stage making his Speech that everybody including your self was standing closely listening to his words. “ I've been in and out of the serpents since i was younger than my son, and its been a wild ride. good times, bad times, but through it all the serpents stuck by my side while most other people turned their backs on me. my own family included. now, the letter of the law says that i cant associate with my friends, my real family, my blood. but ive been thinking about that, and it’ll be a cold day in hell before a snake lets a pig tell him what to do.. The Northside wants me out of this gang, well they better bring a coffin cause FP Jones isn't retiring. i am not going gently into the night. i am here to stay, so bring the fire” FP finishes his speech as the crowd cheered at his sudden change of heart.  
You looked at jug and he seemed surprised like he had not expected FP to change his mind.  You on the other hand were not to taken back by it, you just couldn't see the serpents without him. FP made his way down the stage towards you having to walk past to get to his son and while doing so FP said “Hope your happy” in a tone that surely wasn't a positive one, it seemed bitter. and looked to Sweet Pea who was standing beside you looking clueless at his King. You didn't have time to speak and ask what he was talking about because you yourself were confused by if he meant about your moving on or being the fact he is still going to be the Leader of the southside serpents. 
FP was now standing in front of jughead and You and Sweet Pea had followed him where jug was. FP was telling jug about his knowledge on his activities with the snake charmer and jughead looked surprised. FP sounded disappointed in his son and you felt bad for jug, your no better then jug is here in this situation you never stopped him only agreed to the help penny could give as well. all you and jug and everyone else in the serpents wanted was FP your Leader your King to be free. 
FP told jug he took his place as penny's delivery boy allowing her to no longer be a problem towards jughead. now she is FPs issue to deal with. You notice how shocked and upset jughead was about all his father was saying so you stood next to him putting your hand on his arm “its okay jug” you told him and glanced at FP who looked broken almost with tears in his eyes making you feel sad for him and jug. FP spoke facing Jughead and You trying to hold back emotion “you broke my heart..jughead.” he said and looked at you quickly as if speaking to you as well. FP grabbed jugs face planting a kiss to his forehead then pulling away to look at you once again as a broken man not only heart hurting from his own blood his son but You the girl he feels for more than he thinks he should feel for, the girl he lusts over, the girl he hurts over like no other female in his life at this moment besides his young daughter jellybean who isn't a part of his life at this moment. the girl he is afraid to love. 
Tumblr media
Sweet Pea and Tall Boy approached You all to celebrate FPs return to his kingdom. Tall boy handed FP a shot glass to cheers the great comeback of FP. before downing his shot FP gave You a sad look. FP backed away while looking at between You and Sweet Pea and then back to Jughead. 
Seeing jug looking torn makes you want to do all you can in your power for him and FP. You cant not do all you can for the Jones men. “jug everything will be fine, your dad will be fine, ill do what i can to ensure it, if i have to babysit him for his drinking i will if i have to go along with whatever deliveries penny wants him to do i will, whatever helps you feel better, your dad is doing this out of love how can he not take your place to protect his own, please don’t beat your self up jug” you spoke softly to the younger jones. 
jughead hugs you “You don’t need to be a part of this, its my mess i don’t wanna drag you into it to like i did dad” he said with every word leaving you feeling more and more sad. Even though you would feel awkward to have to train around like a watch dog or babysitter for FP after your rocky recent past you'd do it for jug and for FP without him knowing it. Jug left you standing there with Sweet Pea close by at the pool tables. “Sweets ill be right back” you told him giving him a kiss on the cheek.
You had found FP at a table surrounded by shot glasses and a bottle at the table. along with a couple serpents including Tall boy. FP hadn't noticed you until you spoke up “hey fellas can ya give us a minute?” you asks the other serpents nicely with a sweet smile. FP looked at you in slight shock to see you standing in front of him. “Ya girl” Tall Boy says nodding and patting FP on the back before leaving the table with the others.
 You awkwardly sat in the seat next to FP as he leaned back in his chair looking at the bottle in front of him, before grabbing it to pour a shot. “Hope you don’t intend on getting to smashed FP..” you speak up raising an eyebrow to the older man. He sent you a bitter chuckle and poured two shots. He drank one and slid the other towards you and nodded at it indicating for you to drink it. You lightly sighed and picked up the shot “to you mr jones to the king who is staying the king” you raise the glass and tip it back to your mouth letting the liquor burn your throat in a calming manner.
 FP had his eyes on you the whole time. watching you down the shot and putting the glass back where it s at in front of you when he slid it over. He hadn't said anything to you just kept his eyes on yours. after what felt like many minutes gone by you spoke up again. “please don’t drink your self into a coma and give jug a break he only did what he thought was necessary to get you out, as did we all. he wanted his dad back, and we wanted our king back.”.  He nodded as if he was thinking what to say “yeah and you, you wanted me back?” he asked. “of course FP you didn’t deserve to go to prison and i as well as everyone else wanted you back.” he looked at you he was hard to read “ as our leader” you said speaking again. FPs face fell a little. He bit his lip looking away from you briefly than back at you “Well thanks kid for wanting me back here” he said sounding again bitter. You rolled your eyes at his attitude.
 “FP-” he cut you off chuckling a little in a not so happy sounding tone “hope your happy” he said again to you for the second time that evening with his eyes on the bottle of booze craving another shot. “happy about what? FP huh, cuz im happy your out of jail if that’s what you mean, im happy jug has his dad back even if you being an ass and drinking” you tell him giving him attitude back. “i meant Sweet Pea” he mumbled. “oh im sorry i didn’t hear you” you lied still giving him sass. “i said Sweet Pea, hope your happy with him.” he whispered yelled while getting closer to your face. You looked up to him not knowing what to say or how to say anything. You looked down then back up to him “ i am, i think i am mean, you didn’t seem to want me not how he does, we didn’t work, you didn’t want us to work so whats it to you?” You whisper back to him. FP shock his head “nothing.” he lied. “you might wanna figure out if your happy he seems smitten” FP said giving a disgusted look and standing up grabbing the bottle off the table walking away.
